In order to improve the quality of a spindle unit it is important to increase its rotational accuracy. The rotational accuracy of a spindle unit can be defined as the stability or immobility of its spindle axis while rotating. Spindle rotation in the rolling bearings causes the disturbing influence, which leads to the oscillation of a rotation axis. The purpose of this study is to investigate the oscillation sources and find a way to decrease the runout without additional expenses. The main source of oscillation is the interaction between rolling bodies and ring races. The first oscillation source was the out-of-shape imperfection of inner bearing ring. The mutual compensation of oscillation by proper rings orientation was proposed, which sometimes allow to decrease the radial runout of spindle rotation axis by approximate 40％ down. Also the outer ring harmonics were explored as the second oscillation source. The analysis shows the dependency between the number of rolling bodies and the outer ring race harmonics. The conclusion on the orientation of bearing cages and the bearing rings was made, which makes possible to obtain the optimal variant of their mounting in the spindle unit when the rotational accuracy of the spindle is maximal, and the spindle runout considerably less.

This proposed simulation-based design study is based on the design of residential high-rise buildings in South-Korea. the purpose of this study is to evaluate the amount of daylighting performance passing through building glazing according to sky conditions, orientation of windows and each space of Apartment buildings. The clear sky includes sunshine and is intense and brighter at the horizon than at the zenith, except in the area around the sun. Daylight received within a building is directly dependent upon the sun's position and the atmospheric conditions. Orientation of the building generally used to refer to solar orientation which is the siting of building with respect to solar access. Although any building will have different orientations for its different sides, the orientation can refer to a particular room, or to the most important facade of the building. north-facing windows receive twice the winter sun than east and west facing windows, allowing light and warmth into the home. They can be easily shaded from the high summer sun to help keep the house cool. Ideally, the glazing area should be between 10-25% of the floor area of the room. This paper was calculated by a Desktop Radiance program. The space dimensions were based on a unit module of real constructed apartment having divided into five sections such as living room, room1, room2, room3 and kitchen.

This paper presents the use of the inertial measurement unit information and the infrared sector information for getting the position of an object. Travel distance is usually calculated from the double integration of the accelerometer output with respect to time; however, the accumulated errors due to the drift are inevitable. The orientation change of the accelerometer also causes error because the gravity is added to the measured acceleration. Unless three axis orientations are completely identified, the accelerometer alone does not provide correct acceleration for estimating the travel distance. We propose a way of minimizing the error due to the change of the orientation. In order to reduce the accumulated error, the infrared sector information is fused with the inertial measurement unit information. Infrared sector information has highly deterministic characteristics, different from RFID. By putting several infrared emitters on the ceiling, the floor is divided into many different sectors and each sector is set to have a unique identification. Infrared light based sector information tells the sector the object is in, but the size of the uncertainty is too large if only the sector information is used. This paper presents an algorithm which combines both the inertial measurement unit information and the sector information so that the size of the uncertainty becomes smaller. It also introduces a framework which can be used with other types of the artificial landmarks. The characteristics of the developed infrared light based sector and the proposed algorithm are verified from the experiments.

To evaluate the fiber orientation characteristics and estimate its effect on the flexural strength of steel fiber reinforced ultra high strength concrete with directions of concrete placing, we developed an image processing technique and carried out the flexural test to quantify the effect of fiber orientation characteristics on the flexural strength as well. The image processing technique developed in this study could evaluate quantitatively the fiber orientation property by the use of dispersion coefficient, the number of fibers in a unit area, and fiber orientation. It was also found that the fiber orientation characteristics were dependent on the direction of concrete placing. Fiber orientation characteristic was revealed to strongly affect the ultimate flexural strength, while hardly affecting the first cracking strength. Theoretical model for flexural strength was applied to compare with test results, which exhibited a good agreement.

Good mechanical properties of thin-film transistors on plastic substrates are an essential parameter in the development of robust flexible displays. In this paper, a careful investigation is carried out on TFT backplane on plastic substrates under cyclic bending conditions. Bending modes of tensile and compressive as well as parallel and perpendicular orientation-dependent bending of channel have been analyzed carefully. This analysis will be helpful in knowing the electro-mechanical performance boundaries of the TFT devices so as to determine the bending limitations of our flexible displays.

This paper addresses a task of opinion extraction from given documents and its positive/negative classification. We propose a sentence classification method using a notion of syntactic piece. Syntactic piece is a minimum unit of structure, and is used as an alternative processing unit of n-gram and whole tree structure. We compute its semantic orientation, and classify opinion sentences into positive or negative. We have conducted an experiment on more than 5000 opinion sentences of multiple domains, and have proven that our approach attains high performance at 91% precision.

A human gaze detection and tracing method is importantly required for HMI(Human-Machine-Interface) like a Human-Serving robot. This paper proposed a novel three-dimension (3D) human gaze estimation method by using a face recognition, an orientation estimation and SVMs (Support Vector Machines). 2,400 images with the pan orientation range of $-90^{\circ}{\sim}90^{\circ}$ and tilt range of $-40^{\circ}{\sim}70^{\circ}$ with intervals unit of $10^{\circ}$ were used. A stereo camera was used to obtain the global coordinate of the center point between eyes and Gabor filter banks of horizontal and vertical orientation with 4 scales were used to extract the facial features. The experiment result shows that the error rate of proposed method is much improved than Liddell's.

In this study, we used both displacement-current method and BAM(Brewster-Angle Microscope) to study on the molecular orientation of monolayer on the water surface. The displacement-current method measured behaviors of molecules by current and BAM was shown to be sensitive to film anisotropy even when the molecules were not tilted as long as the unit cell was anisotropic. Every transition was visible with BAM technique, either as a dramatic change in decree of contrast or as a sudden alteration of the mosaic domain texture.

This research investigated 162 residential unit plans which were located in Seoul and Gyonggi Province ranging from 58 to $118m^2$ unit net area recently. Through the investigation of unit plans, a matrix was developed based on the 5 criteria for space composition types. 5 criteria are building stock types, W/D ratio of units, unit net area, number of bay to the main orientation, and openness types. After review the matrix, 10 typical unit types were selected. At the same time, quantitative evaluation indicators were developed based on the 4 criteria such as efficiency, openness, flexibility, environmental sustainability. On each criterion, 3 indicators were developed, and measured on 162 residential unit plans. Firstly, correlation analysis were pursued on 5 criteria for space composition types and 12 quantitative evaluation indicators, and reviewed on each other. Finally, quantitative evaluation indicators of 10 typical unit types were displayed on radar charts in order to show the integrated evaluation on 4 criteria such as efficiency, openness, flexibility, environmental sustainability. From the reviews and radar chart analyses, advantages, disadvantages, and improvements on each typical unit type were presented as research results.
